Simplify
simplify
to ease digestion
our complex world
creates congestion
sometimes retreat
reducing speed
allows us to reach
our inner peace

Opportunity
Opportunity
an opportunity sometimes arises
in what feels like once in a million years
to ignore it would be a sacrifice
where we would instead manifest our fears
leadership is earned and admired
when it is delivered from the heart
such leaders are rare and distinguished
by their ability to stop and restart
to stop and examine the present
to see and hear who we are
to understand the suffering
to seek solutions then lead as a star
a star that shines the light of compassion
and the ability to light in us
the hope and trust in deliverance
with a restart that we see as a must

Defiance
Defiance
defiance is a metaphor
a staging of one’s belief
a complicated engendering
that must be seen in relief
non compliance, singularity
owning one’s way to be
as long as others’ perspectives
are acknowledged
even though one might not agree
we are all products of our journeys
examining our knowingness and beliefs
time to bring it all to a circle
seeking to understand our diversity
